INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE:
“It's an 80:20 business, or maybe now it’s a 90:10 business because one has to have that special skill to get the deals done in these unique inventory-short market conditions.” — Dr. Lawrence Yun
“Core inflation is actually rising at the highest pace in 30 years.” — Dr. Lawrence Yun
“Now we are seeing some topping out in the home sales activity in recent months. That is to say, we are beginning to see sales approaching pre-pandemic levels.” — Dr. Lawrence Yun
“Don't expect any persistent price decline. It may occur just temporarily. Even that temporary price decline may not occur, but if it was to occur it is just simply a second chance opportunity for some buyers who have been outbid by others.” — Dr. Lawrence Yun
“Our commitment at Buffini & Company is to try to make as many agents as we can as professional as we can, as productive as we can, as successful as we can.” — Brian Buffini
“You want to get paid like a pro, you have to practice like a pro. You have to have the skills of a pro, and then you get paid like one.” — Brian Buffini
